I was trying to change my preferred name and I searched in the knowledge base. But I found my page different. What should I do next?
Hi @Estish,
If you have followed the steps on the Updating my displayed name in Canvas - Instructure Community (canvaslms.com) guide and don't have the ability to edit your display name, you'd need to reach out to your school/institution Canvas team (usually in the eLearning / IT / Digital Education areas) to get their assistance. Many schools/institutions will have a central place where name information is entered and then fed into other systems like Canvas, but as part of the global community of Canvas users, we don't know exactly how your school/institution handles the situation. Hopefully your Canvas team will be able to help out!

Hi There, We are in the process of transitioning to Canvas this year and were wanting to connect with any other MYP schools to see how you setup Assignment and grading under your modules. Or you could guide us to any resources you may have.
After using Canvas for a while, I picked up a small habit that’s saved me some last-minute stress with written submissions. Even when drafts are original, longer explanations and summaries tend to reuse common phrasing, especially in research-heavy assignments. Before submitting, I usually do a quick cleanup pass to reduce…
